OTTAWA — Local police say there’s a “high possibility” that two Canadians are dead after a popular 19th-century streetcar crashed in Portugal’s capital on Wednesday, The Associated Press reports.
The AP has reported that the Portugal’s attorney general’s office said eight victims have been identified so far: five Portuguese, two South Koreans and a Swiss national.
It has also reported that the head of the national investigative police said there is a “high possibility” based on recovered documents and other evidence that the victims also include two Canadians, one American, one German and one Ukrainian.
The Canadian Press has reached out to Global Affairs Canada for confirmation.
The department said earlier Thursday that it was aware of two Canadian citizens missing in Lisbon.
